10/10 Excellent
"Incredibly welcoming and helpful staff. Anything I needed was attended to and the staff were accommodating to my schedule and timetable. I felt they went above and beyond to please me. It was appreciated. The location is great, away from the chaos of Paje but still keeping that accessible and close to Jambiani. The beach is a stone’s throw away and absolutely stunning. Thanks guys!"
